To extend the results of conventional cytogenetic analysis of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), we applied the new molecular cytogenetic method of comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), which enables the detection of chromosomal imbalances without the need for dividing cells.

Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used to detect and map the regions of gain, high-level amplification, and loss of DNA sequences in 14 liposarcomas. Thirteen tumors showed DNA sequence copy number changes of one or more genomic regions (mean, six aberrationdtumor; range, 0-1 7). These abe
A series of 18 primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs), the most common malignant central nervous system tumors of childhood. were analyzed with the recently developed approach of comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). In five cases, in which only small amounts of DNA were available, universal po
Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used in a retrospective analysis of chromosomal imbalances in frozen primary tumor specimens from 14 endometrial carcinoma patients. Chromosome changes were detected in nine cases (64%), and tumor stage and grade tended to parallel the degree of genomic im
## Abstract Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) makes it possible to detect losses and gains of DNA sequences along all chromosomes in a tumor specimen based on the hybridization of differentially labeled tumor and normal DNA to normal human metaphase chromosomes. In this study, CGH analysis wa
